Whenever mine start working on the trees, I add apple cider vinegar
to their feed & they always stop. Don't know why, but it's worked for
30+ years.

Thanks guys and gals.......I have wrapped
the trees......as best I can. I have even put my portable corrals around
the biggest trees.....One young horse got the wire off a tree and scratched
her legs up....The hay net sounds like a good new idea, even though they
actually have a lot of shade. Most of my oaks have at least a 6' trunk circum.
and at least a 12' canopy. My pines are all over 20' tall and offer a
lot of shade...
I can't help but think there's some mineral
they need more of when it's that hot????
I will add that they chew with an incredible
amount of aggressiveness, like nothing I have seen in them.....maybe they
are just pissed off because it's hot!
